One of the original ‘Eleanor’ Mustangs from the movie Gone in 60 Seconds is currently up for sale on eBay with bidding set to close on July 4. The car is in fact one of three running examples of the 1967 Mustang Shelby GT500s created for the movie – there were eight other shell cars – and this is the only one that has been offered sale. The other two were destroyed in the bridge jump and junkyard crusher scenes.

This particular car has 38,614 miles on the odometer and is currently stored in Houston, Texas. According to its seller, no two Eleanors from the movie were alike because the cars needed to be set-up differently to do different maneuvers for filming.

The cars in the movie weren’t original Shelbys but replica versions based on modified Mustang fastbacks. Furthermore, while the car in the movie is supposed to be a ‘four-on-the-floor’ manual the show cars in fact featured automatic transmissions to make it easier for stunt drivers. You can start bidding on the car by clicking here.

[conecrazy]

I didn't think the 67 GT500 could look any better. up until this movie.

[Maxima96]

damn that sexy

[od2681]

didnt the one in the movie have a manual transmission..

[Renaissanceman]

this is not the car from the movie, shelby started to build these cars after the movie and then he got sued by the company that made the first gone in 60 seconds because they said that they coined the name eleanor....and they settled out of court and shelby has to pay them a piece of each car and yes the car in the movie was a manual and it did not have that gay tach either.

Fake nitrous setup on body kitted automatic mustang with fire extinguisher... Usually when someone tells you this you don't get excited, you laugh. This case is no different.

what? no....

So you're saying the movie came out before 1966? LOL

BTW the first movie they used a Mach 1 not a Shelby.

[hwt101]

there was a site myelanor.com or something where they would build you one w/just about anything you could imagine done to it, it cost a pretty penny though.

[BNThomas1978]

Some really wants this car, the bid is up to 300k!!!!!
